Repatriated: Myanmarese fishermen arrive at Yangon International Airport in Yangon, Myanmar, on Wednesday. A chartered plane flew home more than 100 Myanmarese fishermen who worked as enslaved fishermen in Indonesia. It is the last batch of fishermen being repatriated to Myanmar following an Associated Press investigation that exposed labor abuses in the fishing industry involving hundreds of men being tricked or sold and taken on Thai boats to Indonesia, where they were forced to work under brutal conditions.
